Double Fisting Drinking My Blues Away

For those that heard that horrible crash that was me falling off the Caffeine Free Diet Coke wagon and I took a chocolate cake with me.  No, turning a year older didn’t cause my fall it was Valentine’s Day.  I was in Winn Dixie with about 10 items more than the express land would allow.  So I went to the the next register and I had to move again because  I was in the “Valentine Express” lane.  Christmas time there wasn’t a “Santa Claus” express lane and I am sure on Easter there will not be a “Easter Bunny” express lane.  I had no choice to get behind a woman with two grocery carts full.   I tried to make Ma buy me a dozen roses and  a box of chocolates so I could get in the Valentine Express lane… but she said I wasn’t worth it    

My son’s girlfriend, Anna posted a picture of herself and James on Facebook that really threw me for a loop.  When James was a teenager he wore a grey sweat shirt, jeans and tennis shoes every single day until he joined the Navy.  Then he traded his teenage attire for a Navy uniform that he wore every single day.  Then he traded in his Navy uniform for a Correctional Officer Uniform.  I have never seen in him in anything but a uniform or jeans and a t-shirt.  Until last night.   I was so shocked that I woke up Ma and said “you are not going to believe this.”    Anna thank you for the picture. 

She also posted another picture, a picture of all my grandkids.  They make a great looking family. 

Life is good.
